On massive higher spins in d = 3

Abstract: In this paper we consider a frame-like gauge invariant description of massive higher spin bosons and fermions in d = 3 and provide for the first time a proof that such formulation does describe just one massive physical degree of freedom with the appropriate helicity. For this purpose we completely fix all the gauge symmetries and show that all other auxiliary components vanish on-shell, while the only remaining highest component satisfies the correct equations. As a bonus, we show that the Lagrangians for the… Show more

“…So one faces the situations when some zero-form must transform into one-form. In all such situations we switch to the metric-like multispinor formalism (see below) similar to the one used in [19,[21][22][23]. Let us stress that all cubic vertices constructed in our work are written in the pure frame-like formalism, while the metric-like one is used only to write the hypertransformations for the zero-forms as well as at some intermediate steps of calculations.…”

“…As it was already mentioned, each time as it is convenient we switch to the metric-like multispinor formalism using the fact that any one-form can be transformed into a set of zero-forms (see [23] for details), for example…”

“…Another interesting model can be obtained by making a specific kind of dimensional reduction to a three dimensional D = 3 flat space [20,21]. As it is common for three dimensional systems with higher spin fields (see for example [22][23][24][25][26][27][28] and references therein), the model consists of massive higher spin fields, with an extra requirement that the masses belong to a particular lattice. The latter condition, along with the "coupling constant conspiracy", ensures that the three dimensional action stays cubic, as it was in D = 4.…”
